Realizing that modern people spend almost one third of their daily lives in their respective offices, it becomes vital for us to try to promote the “Greening the Office Campaign” in the aim to save energy, to improve our health and to create a better working environment.
This year’s project on “Greening the Office Campaign” involved three major work items:
1. Visit of central government agencies
A consultation group was set-up to visit the 33 central government agencies’ offices (not including Taipei and Kao-Shiung City Governments) to check on the current practices and to provide recommendations. This task was completed in mid-June. Besides general measures, there were a few innovative ones:
a. Promotion of ISO 9002 and 14000 certifications,
b. Internal contests at scheduled intervals,
c. Very much improved educational programs
d. Uses of Luminous Flux Indicators and Indoor Air Quality Monitors to check against internal emission standards.
e. Establishment of recycling systems and documentations of records.
2. Consultation and Evaluation:
Telephone hotlines were set-up to provide consultation services to over 75 organizations. Besides provisions of general recommendations and answers questions, we also made available to the public many different forms of promotional material, including CDs, manuals and website.
There were a total of 55 organizations which participated in the Campaign. After careful and stringent scrutiny, 24 best-performing organizations were openly rewarded. The ceremony was held in TEPA on December 13 with a total of 150 attendees.
3. Promotion
In addition to having four workshops to explain the meaning and the content of the Campaign in the north, middle, south and east part of Taiwan, we arranged two visits to the Taichung Harbor Authority and the Fu-Bang Property Insurance Company on December 5 and 10, respectively.
In all, all the organizations which participated in this year’s Campaign are very much concerned about the environment and thus are devoted to take actions to green their offices. This is a very good sign that after years of promotions, we have really achieved a lot through having the Greening the Office Campaign.
